Our friends over at Council of Elrond have this set of screencaps from the Towers EE. It’s a deleted scene involving Frodo, and also shows Elijah Wood getting made up for it. Credit for the screencaps goes to Ringer Teldil, but if you are easily disturbed by gruesome make-up, you may not want to look! !!!Spoilers!!! UPDATE – Calisuri here – Having seen the TTT EE, these pictures of Frodo dressed up in Gollum-mode did not make the TTT EE cut. These are shots from an even more extended sequence where Faramir confronts Frodo and Sam after discovering Frodo has The One Ring. They are supposed to be a ‘flash’ into the future. A chance for the audience to see what Frodo might become should he keep the Ring. [More]

Ringer Spy Sheepy666 writes: You prolly already know this, but hidden on the 1st disc of TTT:EE (U.S. region 1) is Gollum’s amusing award aceptance speech taken from MTV. Access it by going into the chapter select, pressing up once, and then down once (a golden ring appears).
Ringer Spy Rachel sends in a shot of the “One Ring” cake she had made for her husband’s birthday. “He is a great admirer of Lord of the Rings, and his name is Sam, so I paid a bakery to make this for him. I xeroxed the one ring’s writing from the book, and enlarged it, and then had them put it on the side of a round yellow cake to look like the ring (one cake to rule them all?). Then I found a small Sam figure in this wanna-be Lego toy set about Weathertop to put on top. [More]
